I have to agree. Doesn't really show any depth. An extreme close up with a wide angle lens of just the laces may be interesting. Or a shot from the end of the board with the bindings shooting straight up.

Photography is an art. Think of what you are shooting and take into account the lines that you are shooting. Nothing brings me to what it is you are exactly trying to show. The one on the left is all over the place. Am I suppose to concentrate on the board or the bindings. The right one is clearly the binding but it isn't composed properly and the background is distracting.
